A Physically Intuitive Haptic Drumstick

چکیده
We motivate and discuss the design of a physically intuitive haptic drumstick. A new musical instrument is physically intuitive if the physics of haptic interaction are similar to those supported by a traditional musical instrument. We suggest that physically intuitive new musical instruments may help performers transfer motor skills from familiar, traditional musical instruments. Both actively controlled acoustic instruments and many haptic instruments are physically intuitive. We design a physically intuitive haptic drumstick. Simple models of drumstick dynamics and drumstick/membrane collisions are explained and implemented on a high-resolution haptic device. Next, we create a new musical instrument by altering the haptic drumstick dynamics in a physically intuitive manner. We focus on drum rolls. In particular, we alter the haptic drumstick dynamics to assist performers in playing singlehanded drum rolls. Finally, we analyze the stability of the altered system dynamics using a Poincaré map.

Virtual Hair Handle: A Model for Haptic Hairstyling
The process of styling virtual hair is a tedious task for 3D artists, who would significantly profit from more natural and intuitive ways of creating virtual hairstyles such as, for example, the possibility to simply comb virtual hair using a haptic device. However, despite significant advances in hair simulation during the last decades, physically based haptic interaction with hair is still an...
متن کاملDynamic Implicit Models for Computer Graphics
This paper presents a survey of the work done in implicit modeling, physics-based modeling, and haptic interaction. Implicit models characterized by the zero-set of polynomial-based algebraic equations and other commonly used analytic equations are extremely powerful in graphics, geometric design, and visualization. We first review the commonly-used techniques in geometric modeling and examine ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Haptic Guidance on Musical Motor Learning
Skilled musical performance provides one of the best demonstrations of the upper limits of the human motor system’s capabilities. It is therefore not surprising that learning to play an instrument is a long and difficult process. Teachers and education researchers alike have long since recognized that while learning rate is dependent on the quantity of practice, perhaps even more important is t...
متن کاملHand-Shaped Force Interface for Human-Cooperative Mobile Robot
Aiming at realization of direct and intuitive cooperation between human and robot, we propose an interface system for a two-wheeled, autonomous mobile robot that can take physical communication with its user via haptic, or hand-tohand force interaction. The hand-shaped device equipped on the robot has 1 DOF at the finger part and is capable of gently grasping a human hand when actuated. The for...
